I might be missing something but don't we have the same problem with CONFIG_FLATMEM? page_ext_init_flatmem is called way earlier. Or CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is never enabled for CONFIG_FLATMEM?
Yes, CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG which depends on SPARSEMEM. So, this config is not valid for FLATMEM at all.
Well config MEMORY_HOTPLUG bool "Allow for memory hot-add" depends on SPARSEMEM || X86_64_ACPI_NUMA depends on ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
I wasn't really sure about X86_64_ACPI_NUMA dependency branch which depends on X86_64 && NUMA && ACPI && PCI and that didn't sound like SPARSEMEM only. If the FLATMEM shouldn't exist with
Actually, FLATMEMT depends on !NUMA.
Ahh, OK, you are right! Thanks for the clarification.
